NOVEL THERMAL DECOMPOSITION APPROACH FOR THE FABRICATION OF Mn (II) AND Zr (II) DOPED NANOPARTICLES AND STUDIES THEIR PHYSICAL PROPERTIES

Abstract

The aim of this research was to fabricate the manganese (II) and zirconium (II) nanoparticles by novel thermal
decomposition approach. The physical properties such as viscosity and density of sample have been reviewed. The
nanoparticles samples were characterized by FTIR (Fourier transform infra red spectroscopy) and SEM (Scanning
electron microscopy) technique. Functional group present in the sample was analyzed by FTIR while the surface
morphology of nanoparticles was confirmed by scan electron microscopy. The presence of methylene bridge observed at
2929 cm-1 and 2940 cm-1 which conforms the bonding between formaldehyde and p- bromo aniline while peaks at 512
cm-1 and 469 cm-1 conforms the zirconium and manganese metals bonding with polymer. Viscosity and density of
nanoparticles were observed in our research laboratory by using ubbelohde viscometer and pycnometer respectively.
